Elaste
vol 2 space disco compiled by tom wieland (compost 12")
"Really brilliant 12-inch featuring 3 killer tracks from
Tony Allen, Panoptikum and Two Man Sound. The Panoptikum track
on the flip is pure broken techno, done to perfection.
whereas the A-side from Two Man Sound is Italo at its very best.
To round it all off there's the frightfully cosmic early 80s afrobeat
from the legendary Tony Allen. Amazing stuff, well recommended."
FAT CITY, Manchester
"damn.what a killer compilation.

some nuggets I didn't know there as well ; )

all the best, Prins Thomas"

panOptikum:black land of the Nile (deja vu)
Dusty grooves, Chicago:
Tremendous stuff -- and an instant spiritual soul classic! The tune
feels like it was lifted off of some obscure mid 70s Saturn Records
release -- the soulful side of the Sun Ra spectrum, with all of its
requisite sense of ancient power and glory. Blue Eyez sings the
lead vocals beautifully -- a haunting lyric about growth and disapora
-- and the music itself is a modally stepping mix of piano, bass,
and drums. At points, the tune kicks up a bit for the
dancefloor, but the core track is spiritual soul jazz at its best!"

7 Samurai:muzik (panoptikum rmx) (GAMM)
Techno record of the week @ Picadillyrecords,Manchester
"And like that wasn't mind-blowing enough, the B-side Panoptikum remix holds even more treasures. Taking its cues from Carl Craig's dope minimal reworks, the techy drums, simple bass and twisted sounds provide a startling backdrop for this most delicate of songs and it sounds absolutely out of this world on a loud club soundsystem!"
